But yes. Sinistar is indeed a hard game. Too hard in my opinion, and not masterable. (i.e. you can never get "good" at it to a point no matter how much you practice). That's why I think it's one of the weakest in the Williams classic catalog... although definitely one of the coolest vibed ones.
I don't think I ever seen this one in the arcades.......I wouldn't necessarily call it one of the weakest...as I'd rate it ahead of say Bubbles and Blaster (but that's just my opinion.....)
